《I Am Overlord》Chapter 1238: Stay Far Away From My Boss
Advertisement
The Flux Finger Sword Technique was a finger sword technique that could form an incredibly sharp energy sword to cut through everything.
Xiang Shaoyun's finger sword moved rapidly, instantly slicing through Gongsun Tiehu's thigh. That part, in particular, wasn't covered by his armor.
Unable to dodge, all Gongsun Tiehu felt was a sharp pain in his thigh before his blood splattered out. That wasn't all. While slicing through his thigh, the finger sword also sliced through his mount and made the tiger wail. The tiger struggled in pain, nearly throwing off Gongsun Tiehu.
When the two of them worked together, they could unleash an impressive strength. Thus, Xiang Shaoyun aimed to separate them. He would then be able to defeat them easily. Xiang Shaoyun took the chance to launch another attack. He transformed into a tiger as well, and a tiger's roar rumbled out of his mouth.
Roar!
It was as though the lord of all tigers was roaring. Both Gongsun Tiehu and the tiger were dazed, especially the tiger. It had an illusion that a white tiger was pouncing on it, scaring it so much that it trembled and went limp.
White tiger energy!
Xiang Shaoyun transformed into a white tiger and pounced on them, sending a barrage of white tiger energy toward the two of them. Gongsun Tiehu lost the support of his mount, and his strength dropped considerably. Even so, he still mustered a response and defended in time. Unfortunately, it was pointless.
Xiang Shaoyun's attack was too powerful, fully suppressing him. The endless bombardment tortured him with pain, forcefully separating him from his tiger. They could no longer battle together.
Xiang Shaoyun took the opportunity to press on, and he delivered a beating to Gongsun Tiehu. He grabbed Gongsun Tiehu with one hand and started raining down punches with his other hand.

As he punched, Xiang Shaoyun mercilessly scolded, "Trying to steal my woman? With this little capability of yours, you should just go back home and become a farmer. Stop embarrassing yourself here."
Gongsun Tiehu nearly cried from his beating. Wasn't it immoral to hit someone in the face? And yet, Xiang Shaoyun was only hitting his face. That was too ruthless!
Zhou Haoyu and Su Youzi wanted to help, but when they saw Xiang Shaoyun's ferocity, they were terrified. They decided to continue lying on the ground and acted like they were dead. They had no interest in having their faces pounded like that as well.
Devil Concubine laughed and said, "That's it, that's the kind of strength my man has."
"Sister-in-law, you have good eyes. My boss is a giant among men. Nobody above or under the sky is his match," Xia Liuhui hurriedly agreed.
"I'd be happy if you're even half as capable as your boss," muttered Min Rourou softly.
Xia Liuhui was dealt a great blow. He boldly declared, "Don't worry, Rourou. I might not be as strong as my boss, but I'll definitely be able to at least obtain a strength that is two-thirds of my boss' strength."
Min Rourou merely looked at him doubtfully, dealing an even greater blow to him.
Looks like the only path to happiness is to stay far away from my boss, thought Xia Liuhui.
"Damn it! The devils are attacking," someone suddenly shouted from far away.
Sure enough, a massive group of devils appeared in the distance. There were at least 3,000 of them coming from the sky and the ground. There were definitely enough of them to be considered an army.
Xiang Shaoyun sensed the incoming devils. He immediately tossed Gongsun Tiehu away and shouted, "Remember, whenever you see me in the future, move away. Otherwise, I will beat you up every time I see you."

He wasn't only speaking to Gongsun Tiehu but also to the other fan club members. Since Devil Concubine had insisted that he was her man and he had no intention to part with her for now, he decided to just go with it and let her follow him. Most men were the same. Few could say no when a beautiful woman was voluntarily approaching them.
Xiang Shaoyun personally believed that he had already shown great willpower by persisting this long before accepting her. In a way, he was right. Not many could resist a woman like Devil Concubine. Most other men would hug and shower her with love if they had obtained her favor like Xiang Shaoyun.
Xiang Shaoyun flew toward Xia Liuhui and the others. He enveloped them in powerful energy and shouted, "Let's go!"
They left speedily. He could sense many powerful existences among the approaching devil army. With the strength of Xia Liuhui, Liang Zhuangmin, and the others, they weren't these devils' match. He also couldn't protect them while fighting devils so powerful. Thus, their best course of action was to retreat.
Unsurprisingly, Devil Concubine followed them. She would stick to Xiang Shaoyun for now. It wasn't easy for her to reach this far in the Devil Domain, and she naturally wished to go farther.
Among the devils, there were some flying devils, which were faster than the others. They were the first to attack Xiang Shaoyun and his group. Xiang Shaoyun did not bother wasting any time on them. He moved even faster, aiming to leave this place.
Devil Concubine wasn't slow either, and she kept up with Xiang Shaoyun's speed. The flying devils stubbornly chased after them and separated from the main devil army. The leaders of the flying devils were stronger than the rest, but Xiang Shaoyun did not fear this smaller group of devils.
He worked with Devil Concubine and eliminated all the flying devils. Devil Concubine attacked with the powers of yin and yang, which were terrifyingly destructive. Not even the devils could resist her powers.
Xiang Shaoyun suddenly had an idea. He decided to utilize the power of time and attacked alongside Devil Concubine.
Instant Tempo!
As he used his fingers as a sword, the yin and yang energies swirled around his hand and transformed into an enchanting sword that seemed capable of stopping time itself. The flying devils were frozen in time, allowing a single slash to kill several of them.
When Devil Concubine sensed a similar type of power undulating around her, she looked at Xiang Shaoyun in joy and asked, "You've comprehended the dao of yin and yang?"
Back when Xiang Shaoyun had battled her, she was aware he had relied on his Light of Wisdom to comprehend the Yin Yang Shield. She could sense that his grasp over the powers of yin and yang had improved considerably. She was naturally pleased to learn that Xiang Shaoyun also cultivated the powers of yin and yang like her.
"To be precise, it's the dao of time," Xiang Shaoyun replied. He swung his finger sword repeatedly, affecting time and space around him as though time itself was under his control.
He rarely utilized the dao of time. It wasn't that he didn't want to use it but that he only used it when he was sure he wanted to kill. He also wanted to hide more of his trump cards. That way, he could surprise his opponents during critical moments.
"Your comprehension is already that high?" Devil Concubine was shocked.
